Kolkata, April 2026 : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday launched a sharp attack on the ruling Trinamool Congress during his final campaign rally in West Bengal ahead of the crucial two-phase Assembly elections next month. Addressing a gathering in Kushmandi in South Dinajpur district, he called upon voters to bring an end to what he described as 15 years of \u201crule based on lies, corruption, and terror.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his address, Modi reminded the electorate of the state\u2019s political history, stating that West Bengal had already given long tenures to previous governments. \u201cYou gave 34 years to the Left Front, and then you gave three consecutive terms to the Trinamool Congress, which has been in power for the last 15 years. They have continued to win elections by making false promises and targeting me with abuse,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Questioning the development record of the incumbent government, Modi asked voters to reflect on the state\u2019s progress. \u201cIf there has been no significant development in the last 15 years, how can there be any progress in the next five years if the same government returns to power?\u201d he said, urging people to vote for change in the upcoming elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Prime Minister emphasized that the state had suffered due to what he termed a governance model marked by corruption and fear. \u201cFor 15 years, West Bengal has witnessed a system driven by corruption and terror. It is time to end this and give a new direction to the state,\u201d he said, appealing to voters to give the Bharatiya Janata Party an opportunity to govern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Outlining his party\u2019s promises, Modi said that if the BJP comes to power in West Bengal, it will constitute a special committee to investigate alleged corruption and misrule during the Trinamool Congress regime. According to him, the panel would include retired judges from the Supreme Court to ensure credibility and transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis committee will bring out the truth behind years of corruption and ensure justice for those who have suffered. Our goal is to restore faith among the people and provide them with an environment of peace and development,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Prime Minister also made a strong pitch on women\u2019s safety, promising strict action against crimes. He assured that all pending cases related to rape and rape-cum-murder in the state would be reopened if the BJP forms the government. \u201cThis is my guarantee to the women of West Bengal. Every such case will be reviewed, and no culprit will be spared,\u201d Modi asserted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier in the day, Modi addressed two other rallies at Katwa in East Burdwan district and Jangipur in Murshidabad district, concluding an intensive campaign tour in the state. His speeches largely focused on governance issues, law and order, and alleged corruption under the current regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the Assembly elections approaching, Modi\u2019s rallies are seen as a key effort by the BJP to consolidate support and position itself as a strong alternative to the Trinamool Congress government in West Bengal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
